TABLE D'ORIENTATION DE LA VIERGE DE VACHERESSE

The orientation table, which allows the landscape to be deciphered at 180° over 100 km, is located at an altitude of approximately 900 m, near the Virgin of Cowheresse, a statue perched on a high conical mound. This is an essential site for those who wish to have a panoramic view of the canton of Yenne and Novalaise. Some people launch out in order to enjoy the sunset once they get to the top. For those who are not afraid of the 300 metres of altitude difference, you can take the full itinerary of the Virgo Trail, from the Monument to the Dead of Verthemax (chief town), over 4.5 km. It offers several points of view on its route during the approximately two hours that the loop will then last. In winter, it becomes a snowshoe route. Lovers of outdoor excursions will necessarily appreciate it.
